Looking for a family-friendly way to celebrate Halloween without the haunted houses and jump scares? Memphis Botanic Garden’s Halloween Hike is back on Saturday, October 18, 2025.
Trick-or-Treat Meets Nature
Instead of knocking on doors, kids can collect treats along the Garden’s winding trails, where friendly community partners hand out goodies in a safe, festive environment. Costumes are encouraged, and the setting is more boo-tanical than bone-chilling.
“It is always so fun to see families experience Halloween in a whole new way at Memphis Botanic Garden. Our family-friendly Halloween Hike combines the magic of trick-or-treating with the wonder of discovering nature in a not-so-spooky setting.”

- Memphis Zoo
- Germantown Community Theatre
- Collage Dance Collective
- Cazateatro Bilingual Theatre Group
- Young, Gifted & Green
- Tennessee Shakespeare Company
